Vantaggi
Pretty cool office space and gym, great pay for higher positions. Good curriculum department.
Svantaggi
A perfect case study of a poorly managed company. $54M annual revenue from Primavera Online High School, Strongmind is just the technology arm and barely clears a few million in sales after YEARS of trying to make something happen. Huge staff that doesnt' get much done and they don't support the only team that really makes them any money. Management hasn't changed since they changed their name from FlipSwitch (go read the reviews), I should have taken warning from those wise words. The CEO still functions like a startup CEO by telling teams what to do and what to build on a whim, bypassing all normal strategy and planning. He even built a 1970s style office that overlooks everyone on the "floor" with big glass walls, pretty incredible. Sales has no idea what they are doing and there is no real product. The main product was created for Primavera and was trying to be sold to other companies but requires a ton of custom code which is NOT scalable. The leadership has no idea how to build good products with any type of methodology and it takes its toll on the staff. Basically, it's "do what the CEO thinks" without data or research or anything to back it up and spend way to much time and money on things that will never see the light of day. People say they want change, but they don't really and people are scared to speak up. Must be why good people are leaving left and right. You have been warned.
